Partnership and Support

“The Great Animation Festival” was founded in Moscow in 2007 and immediately became one of the most-viewed international venues for animation from Russia. The Mikhail Prokhorov Foundation is the permanent strategic partner of the Great Animation Festival.

This is a cross-university special course of lectures in Krasnoyarsk as part of the “Local History” long-term scientific research project. The lectures are given by leading Russian and foreign experts in history and philology.

The Mikhail Prokhorov Foundation supports an annual project run by the 'Memorial' Research Centre, which is aimed at talented young people from Russian provinces and low-income families, to help them obtain Higher Education in history and related humanitarian studies.

Since 2008 the Mikhail Prokhorov Foundation has been the general partner of the New European Theatre festival which was started in the late 90s as the first private theatre initiative in Russia. Today the festival has become one of the most outstanding events in Moscow theatre life.
